Treat your LeatherBikini fashion as you would a “fine” garment. Although it can be worn in the water, we recommend that you wear it as “Prancing Wear to Knock Their Socks Off” !!!
Our Bikinis “FIT LIKE A GLOVE!!!”
To properly care for your LeatherBikini washable leather fashion:
- Hand-wash in tepid water in sink basin. Do NOT use detergent. Use capful of OIL SOAP.
- NEVER use detergent, as it will remove all the oils from the leather.
- Rinse until all persperation, chlorine or ocean salts have been removed.
- DO NOT wring out during washing, rinsing or before drying.
- After rinsing, lay flat on an absorbent towel until dry.
- NEVER use HEAT.
- If bikini is worn in chlorinated pool or ocean water, it is imperative to rinse immediately to remove salts and chlorine that can bleach the leather color.
- Ocean water and some chemicals found in pools and tap water may cause color to run or ”bleed”.
We carefully select our hides for their supple, natural beauty. The back sides are velvety and feel wonderful against your skin. Our designer line is made from natural leather, and as such, during the tanning process some slight scarring or other marks may be present. These elements are not imperfections, but natural characteristics of “real” leather.
Our bikinis are designed for novelty wear. While you can swim in them and get them wet, they should be treated and worn as novelty wear…..for “looks” only. We cannot guarantee that they will be as durable and exhibit characteristics similar to man-made fiber swim wear. Swimming or lounging in hot tubs, spas, chlorinated pools or ocean water in our bikinis is done at your own risk.
During the tanning process, various color dyes are used to give the leather its vibrant color. Occasionally, the salts found in perspiration of some individuals or in chemically treated pools and in ocean water may cause the dye to bleed or rub off. These dyes are non-toxic and will wash off. Pre-washing may prove helpful. Leather Bikini.com/inc. shall not be liable for damages of any kind, including incidental or consequential damages.
